I wanted to express my sincere gratitude to our 5th-grade students, Mr. Mossberg, and Ms. Hicks-Gyewu for the exceptional assembly today, honoring our school's namesake, Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.
The assembly was not only informative but also inspiring. Our students did a wonderful job, showcasing their understanding and appreciation of Dr. King's legacy. Their dedication to commemorating such an important figure in history is truly commendable.

Special thanks to Mr. Mossberg and Ms. Hicks-Gyewu for their efforts in organizing and guiding the students. Ms. Hicks-Gyewu spent hours working with students and piecing together special photographs and videos of Dr. King. The impact of today's assembly will undoubtedly resonate within our school community.

Once again, thank you to everyone involved in making this assembly a meaningful and memorable event.

The day is dedicated to honoring the achievements and contributions of Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. to the civil rights movement and promoting equality and justice.

In our school, we will hold our annual neighborhood 'March for What You Believe' on Wednesday, January 17, and an all-school assembly on Friday, January 19 to reflect on his legacy. We are also committed to the 'Be Love Pledge' from the King Center.

“We all have the drum major instinct. We all want to be important, to surpass others, to achieve distinction, to lead the parade. ... And the great issue of life is to harness the drum major instinct. It is a good instinct if you don't distort it and pervert it. Don't give it up. Keep feeling the need for being important. Keep feeling the need for being first. But I want you to be the first in love. I want you to be the first in moral excellence. I want you to be the first in generosity.” - Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Feb 4, 1968
